When it comes to dressing up (and sipping some bubbles), there’s no better excuse to go all out than New Year’s Eve. And if you’ve not yet found the perfect outfit to wear while waving 2022 good-bye, we’ve done the legwork for you and selected 20 sparkly, slinky, and on-sale options. Everything is under $150 (though most of it is under $100) and should arrive before December 31. The Strategist team will be logging off for the holidays, so we won’t be doing further price or stock checks on this post. So if you see something you like, don’t dillydally, as availability and pricing are subject to change.
This slinky slip dress from Norma Kamali is ruched all over — meaning it hugs in all the right places.
This well-cut satin top can be worn all year round, but nothing says NYE like some sparkles.
And if it’s sparkles you’re after, this J.Crew dress has no shortage of them. With code BIGSALE, it can be yours for just $86 — which we think is pretty incredible.
You can also use code BIGSALE to get this J.Crew dress for $79. It’s available in classic inky black and an Elle Woods–esque pink, if you’re feeling brave.
There’s no extra discount on this crystal-embellished sweater, but at $50, we’re not sure it needs one. It’s a surprisingly subtle way to add some shine to your look.
This velvet number is from Reformation’s extended sizing range, meaning it’s available in sizes 1X through 2X. It’s selling fast, though, so make sure to add it to your basket soon.
A relaxed cowl neck, adjustable bow-shaped straps, a sultry leg slit … even without plans, this dress is pretty tempting.
These vibrant velvet pants are a disco dream — and their price tag is pretty dreamy, too.
You quite simply can’t go wrong with a backless, sparkly, flattering halter.
And you can pair it with these high-rise jeans with plenty of gemstone-button detailing.
It wouldn’t be a New Year’s Eve roundup without some little black dresses — and we’re kicking things off with plenty of embellishment.
We like the Bardot neckline and puffy sleeves on this LBD — and we’re pretty fond of the $41 price tag, too.
The extra-flowy straps on this figure-hugging midi dress give it a glamorous feel.
This gothic dress with chiffon detailing has just the right amount of drama. (Wednesday Addams dance moves are, of course, optional.)
An effortless satin slip is a wardrobe staple — and it can be easily jazzed up with some accessories.
At just $10, this cute, sparkly crop top is the perfect stocking stuffer from you … to you.
If you’re less of a dress person, a tuxedo-esque jumpsuit is another solid option.
No one is going to miss you in this dazzling tangerine-tone dress — but isn’t that the whole point?
We like the darling pink shade of this ultrafeminine, floor-length turtleneck dress.
And this slim-fitting, one-shoulder dress is one you’ll be reaching for again when it’s wedding season this spring.
